River Management Society organized a workshop on river access planning hosted by Ozark National Scenic Riverways with the National Park Service on river access planning. Thomas O'Keefe and Jordan Secter were the primary instructors for the workshop that took place over Wednesday (11/13) and Thursday (11/14). We provided an overview of the River Access Planning Guide and used the access issues at Waymeyer Access, Chilton Creek Boat Ramp, and Pin Oak Campground that were exacerbated by the spring 2017 floods as sites for a discusssion on river access planning. The workshop included site visits to the various access sites along the river in close proximity to Van Buren, MO.
